In mathematics, an invariant is a property of a mathematical object (or a class of mathematical objects) which remains unchanged after operations or transformations of a certain type are applied to the objects. The particular class of objects and type of transformations are usually indicated by the context in which the term is used. For example, the area of a triangle is an invariant with respect to isometries of the Euclidean plane. The phrases "invariant under" and "invariant to" a transformation are both used. More generally, an invariant with respect to an equivalence relation is a property that is constant on each equivalence class. Invariants are used in diverse areas of mathematics such as geometry, topology, algebra and discrete mathematics. Some important classes of transformations are defined by an invariant they leave unchanged. For example, conformal maps are defined as transformations of the plane that preserve angles. The discovery of invariants is an important step in the process of classifying mathematical objects. (Wikipedia).

Symmetries show up everywhere in physics. But what is a symmetry? While the symmetries of shapes can be interesting, a lot of times, we are more interested in symmetries of space or symmetries of spacetime. To describe these, we need to build "invariants" which give a mathematical represen

Bertrand Eynard - An overview of the topological recursion
The "topological recursion" defines a double family of "invariants" $W_{g,n}$ associated to a "spectral curve" (which we shall define). The invariants $W_{g,n}$ are meromorphic $n$-forms defined by a universal recursion relation on $|\chi|=2g-2+n$, the initial terms $W_{0,1}$

16. Invariants questions 27-29
This was an interesting experience. The first question I saw immediately how to do, as, at least for someone with the right background in elementary number theory, it was a genuinely straightforward question. The second looked pretty hard, but I happened to play around with it in a fruitfu
